Blank Pages

If you look at a blank page long enough an idea has to come to mind at some point in time.So that was exactly what I did with this sonnet.

There on the table is a blank page waiting for me.

Anything can come of it, anything can be made,

From a story to a poem about tea or glee.

You can write anywhere from sitting in the shade, To in you’re your living room in front of the tube. Horror stories can come of the blank pages sometimes Even romance novels, they all start at a place some even at a lube

Shop. Blank pages are really quite interesting from being blank

To full of words that tell a story or poem that has no ending.

Some with the main character driving a tank.

Another with the character who works on tending To large horses. Of course blank pages can be boring. But not so boring that you can’t even start ignoring.
